History

The happy cake was invented at Kemo'o Farms Restaurant in Wahiawa, Hawaii in 1967 by Dick Rodby,[2] owner of the restaurant famous for live Hawaiian music.[3] The restaurant was also featured as "Choys" tavern in the Frank Sinatra film From Here to Eternity.

Surrounded by pineapple fields, Rodby was inspired to create his own version of a Hawaiian fruit cake and named it the "happy cake" registering the trademark Happy Cake in September 1969.[4] Cakes were ordered from all over the country as gifts and were popular in Hawaiian themed parties.[5][6]
